| To See God |
|
Blessed are the poor, Who know their desperate need. God rewards them with a kingdom, Because eternity they heed. Blessed are the mourners, Who repent of all known sin. Blessed are the meek, Who know they're weak within. Blessed are those who hunger And thirst after righteousness. God fills them with Himself, So their lives will know His best. Blessed are the merciful. God will be merciful to them. Blessed are the pure in heart. His Presence He will send. Blessed are those who work for peace, God will say, "You are My sons." Blessed are those suffering persecution. Who have to face man's guns. Blessed are those who are insulted, Are accused of being wrong. They can rejoice, be glad in God, For their reward will be an everlasting song. |
